A. Activities Performed during the period
Please provide a summary of the activities performed during the reporting period. Although you are free to adopt your own structure, please try to follow these guidelines:
· Be concise
· Avoid a report that is too structured (like reporting by each WP)
· Do not keep reporting past issues by adding new things to old ones which are not relevant anymore for the time span covered in the report
· Consider the Monthly Progress Report as a tool not only to keep ESA informed, but the whole project team
· Be systematic; provide the Monthly Progress Report on time, and not only during the first months. A good Monthly Progress Report is a key tool to circulate information in your project team, and keep active the responsiveness of your team
B. Problems Encountered and Corrective Actions
Please indicate here any problem areas that you encountered and any corrective measures that will be taken.
C. Planned Activities for Next Period
Please provide a short summary of the activities to be undertaken for the next period
D. Current Status Update for the Project Web Page under the ESA Telecom Web Site (FOR APPLICATIONS PROJECTS ONLY)
Starting with the first Monthly Progress Report after the BDR, Applications projects have to provide an updated current status paragraph for their Project Web Page, which will be published on the ESA Telecom Web Site. Please remember that this paragraph (that you provide here) will be made public!
The ESA Technical Officer of your project will take care of the implementation of the updating of the web page.
